How to Install Kodi on PS4

As much as we want to install Kodi on the PS4, we can’t do that; not yet. The software is a great media center, but it is not available for the PlayStation platform. The developers are working to make a version that is compatible with the PS4 and the PS3.

But there is nothing to worry about as we have a great alternative to Kodi on PS4. The name of this app is Plex. It is on par with the former in terms of features if not in popularity.

Nevertheless, you can consider Plex to be the greatest alternative to Kodi Movie App that you can hope to get.

Install Plex on your PS4.

Start up your PlayStation console and open the PlayStation store.

There you will see a section called “Apps”. Select it and enter the Apps section.

Enter the “Popular” section by clicking on it.

Then scroll down until you see the Plex icon. It is before several rows before you can find it.

Click on Download and wait for the app to install.

After installation is complete, you can select “Start” to start the app directly.

Or you can open the app from the home screen from under the TV & Video section.

If you don’t have a Plex account, you can create one here. Then sign in with that account on your PS4.

A code will appear on the ensuing screen, telling you to visit https://plex.tv/link.

Click on the link and sign in with your account. Then enter the code from your TV screen and click on “LINK”.

You will get an “App Linked” message on your screen. The app will then show a big error message stating that it couldn’t connect to a media server.

Now, pick up your Android phone and install the Plex app from the Play Store. Sign in with your account and tap on “Stay in Trial mode”.

After that, go to the Settings > System and then enable these options: Show camera roll media, Network discovery, and Advertise as server.

Now, if your PS4 and Android devices are connected to the same network, then you can access the videos and other media from your Android device onto your PS4. You can do this by selecting your Android device from the top-right corner.
